Modern D6 are boring.
These 17th & 18th Century dice made Game Night with grandma far more exciting, were educational, and carried only a slight potential of being cursed, before Big Cube came in and ruined everything.

True love is not just accepting the horse girl, but enabling the horse girl!

Still chipping away at this piece, I'm at the exciting stage where I have to stop ignoring the background and actually draw it 🫠

Tunic, Night in the Woods Publisher Says TikTok Is Creating and Running Racist GenAI Ads for Its Games Without Permission - IGN Publisher Finji says that TikTok has been using generative AI to modify its ads on the platform without permission and pushing those ads to its users without Finji's knowledge, including at least one ...

Dug into this absolutely wild thing happening to Finji. The deeper I read into their increasingly baffling conversations with TikTok "support" the more I felt like I was on something.

Earlier I went to type a bluesky post that began with "Apologies if I seem unfocused".

I then got distracted, never finished drafting it, and now I don't remember what the rest was meant to be!

Thanks ADHD! The jokes almost write themselves...

Let's play the fun game of "did I take my meds when I wasn't paying attention, or have I not taken them yet???"

(Of course it's the ones where I'll get unpleasant side effects if I double dose...)

(5/5) -The enchantment is still unbroken. The flames grow hotter. The people burn alive, still behaving as if they're acting out their normal daily tasks while their bodies melt & burn & die.

I wake up.

(4/5) She's choking to death on her melting gullet, throwing up blood & bile & molten food.

She's on her knees, trying to shovel the mess of molten food & gore off of the sizzling floor & back into the ruined, blistered, weeping gash that was once her mouth & throat.

(3/) Food is cooking on a grill on a counter. Molten, bubbling cheese on burned & blackended pizza. One entranced victim picks it up & eats it, ignoring how it burns her throat & mouth. Molten food blisters and liquidizes her insides.-

(2/5) -I have no idea how to.

I desperately throw a brick into one of the washers. It brakes, catches fire, setting the laundrette ablaze.

But no-one reacts to the danger. They stick their hands into the flames to get their "washed" laundry out the machine. Burning alive, barely flinching.

(1/5) Doodle of a nightmare that's seared itself inside my brain. T/W for gore?

I am trapped inside a laundrette. The customers & staff are unaware of the nightmare they're stuck in. It's growing hot. Too hot. Hotter still. A heat haze shimmers.

I need to break whatever is mesmerising them.-

A transcript of a video of Britains Most Haunted Places by @ghostlytrails on youtube. It reads: "Eventually, and with a heavy heart, the city council ordered that the entrance to the tunnel be sealed with bricks. No trace of the boy has ever been found. Thereafter, on quiet days, when the noise of the traffic is low, the faint sound of bagpipes may be heard below the royal mile between the castle and the palace."

Had to pause a video about haunted places in Britain at the talk of ghostly bagpipes haunting Edinburgh Castle & the Royal Mile.

I need y'all to know it'd be far stranger to be in the vicinity & *NOT* hear the sound of bagpipes! It's 1 of the top hotspots for central Scotland's tourism! πŸ˜‚

The last few weeks I've been getting intense and vivid dreams. Some of them have just been strange, but many of them have been full blown nightmares.

Any tips on how to ward against bad dreams? I'm getting real tired of my brain's BS. πŸ™ƒ

For my birthday a few months back I was given a #whittling kit. My 1st attempt obviously isn't the best (you've gotta start somewhere after all), but I had a lot of fun & managed not to slice my fingers off, so that's a win in my book!

(Also happy new year! May 2026 treat you kindly!)

"the makers of AI aren’t damned by their failures, they’re damned by their goals. (...)They want to create a new kind of mind, so they can force it into mindless servitude. Their dream is to invent new forms of life to enslave."

Very good text. It's 100% okay to just hate genAI.

HABROMANIA A dreamy choice-based misadventure game where Alice falls down a rabbit hole and out of her mind.

Excited to have backed HABROMANIA by Symphony_Sonata!

The art style is stunning and, from the snippets I've seen from the demo, I hope I'm going to enjoy the psychological horror elements and the dry humorous style of Alice's dialogue!

God I fucking feel this today... I'm sick of depression. I'm sick of feeling like a hollowed out husk. I'm sick of clawing myself out of this fucking hellhole of an emotional pit, just to be sucked back down into it again.
